ABOUT AARON BARAK
Hello, I'm Aaron Barak
MY BACKGROUND
With my professional career spanning over three decades, I have cultivated extensive experience at the executive level in both technology and financial services. For the past ten years, I have dedicated myself to executive management roles in local government, initially in King County in Washington State and currently in Solano County. This journey has equipped me with the skills and insights necessary to drive positive change and foster community development.
I have been connected to the community since 2005, when I joined Silicon Valley Bank to create/build their engineering department. We had a branch in town which I often visited and came to know the community.
Since moving to St. Helena in 2018, my family and I have embraced the vibrant community spirit that defines our town. My wife Amy and I are raising our two young daughters here, and we are committed to ensuring that St. Helena remains a thriving and welcoming place for families.
My professional journey has prepared me to bring a unique blend of private and public sector experience to the St. Helena City Council. I am committed to enhancing transparency, accountability, and sustainable growth for our community. Together, we can build a brighter future for St. Helena.
A VISION FOR THE FUTURE

Together, we will build a stronger, more transparent St. Helena, where every voice is heard, and every decision reflects the best interests of our residents.
